You're Beautiful

Hello! I hope your week is off to a great start! I am sharing a card today for The Project Bin. For this card, I used the stamp set called "BFF". This set has some great sentiments about friendship.

I began by digging into my bin of scraps and picked out some scraps in pretty rainbow colors. Using smaller dies is a great way to use all of those leftover card stock pieces from past projects. I think I could create enough cards to last a lifetime if I never bought another piece of card stock again! (and stamps, and dies, and adhesive, oh my!)

I started the card by using a rectangle frame die and cut the rectangle from the center of the card panel and I also cut a second panel out of craft foam. I then used the Layer B die from Birch Press Designs Viva die set and cut the circles from each color and adhered them to the panel framing the focal point. I then added the fun foam piece to the back. Next up, the sentiment. I white heat embossed the sentiment onto black card stock and adhered it to the back card panel, then I adhered the front panel with the craft foam over the sentiment panel. The front of the card is popped up in real life, but it is difficult to see in the photo. I really like the pop of color from the circles against the white background.
